bart hess

this video shows barts very personal and recognisable signature. in the way that he uses new and old materials in a very innovative way. in this video he uses an olympic swimmer which at the time were all competeing. he produces this effect by two a pair of human shavers manipulating a 2 meter long blade.. “What is important to me in my work is a sense of estranging,” admits Hess, who added the white bar in post-production to enhance the effect “I want to show the spectator an image that may not be recognizable right away.”Director Bart Hess has also worked with names as Lady Gaga, Nick Knight, Palais de Tokyo, and Lucy McRae, and has been featured in American Vogue and AnOther Magazine. 

i think his work really captures what bart hess wants which are the lines and shapes creates but the scraping away of foam and not initially seen as a mans body. also i like the background knowledge that gos with it as the swimmers do actually shave all over to help them be more streamline
